That looks absolutely fantastic Dave! I love the Ark of the Covenant plot point! I really like the modular board too, the color is amazing - what is the board made out of?
-

Mrs. Tibbles is my favourite. This was a lot of fun to read and look at!
-
That looked like a really fun game. Sad I missed it. I see Bessy was wearing her cool Pulp Alley scarf!!! :-* :-*

Hmmm... I think Tigra was made by Copplestone... maybe? ;D
The tiger is by Reaper.
The bald dudes are some old miniatures for Legend of the Five Rings game. I bet they are still being made, but I don't know it would be anymore.
HAVE FUN

The board is basically 4 18"x18" self-adhesive vinyl tiles stuck to 4 squares of blue Styrofoam. Then we coated it with "texture goo". We actually posted the WIP photos, but that was years ago. ;)

Looks like a lot of fun :) May need to look into this game...

I thought the Tigra figure was an old Foundry one from a Tarzan and Jane set, but I can't find it on their website. It's a figure I've used for numerous flesh paint tests, but have never actually fullly painted.
Equally, it could well be Copplestone (I was buying a lot of both their figures at the time), but I can't find it on their website either.
Great game by the way, looks like it was a lot of fun

It is, indeed, a Wargames Foundry Darkest Africa figure in set DA016 Deadlier than the Male.
